I know I am lazy, and makes you a better player working it out yourself, i know, and I CAN do it, just takes ages (I don't have a particularly good ear)
Anyone know somewhere on the net that can tab songs(paid service even?)
There are a bunch of songs from surf age nuggets that I am working out(some of them are not very good recordings and it's harder)
Any suggestions would be great

Ultimate Guitar has a few I believe.
e.g., http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/tabs/dick_dale_tabs.htm
or do you mean, you want to pay someone to make tab??
If you need automated tools to help with figuring out a song--well Chordify has some capability online, and Ableton Live can extract some MIDI information from files.

What songs in particular? I'm sure there's people on here that would be willing to PM you some, I certainly am.

I'd really like to some tabs (just the rough draft of the songs, you end up doing your own style anyway)these are all on surf age nuggets CDs
Crash - The Scorpions
Scorpion - The Carnations
80' Wave - The Vqueros
Can Paypal something for the effort . . .

Paypal! Wombat you are so good M8. I'm tempted to have a go at this myself, but I wouldn't get much time over the next uh-... 18 months or so I guess.

I'll try and give it my best for you. Do you want lead, rhythm or bass?
I just took a look at them and I can have them finished by tomorrow if you want.

Cruel you are a legend, just the lead/melody, i can work out chords (we got a good bass player as he just picks it up after a few listens )
Just the rough outline tab would be great, we can post one sg101 tabs section so anyone else can use too. Much appreciate the assistane, This is what this website community is all about

oh yeah my only problem is going to be writing the tabs out. But thank for introducing me to these two songs. I can't stop listening to them now!
